Silk Eye Masks & 360 Sleep Masks

Look beyond the appearance of the silk. A good quality Mulberry silk eye mask should explain its fabric weight, filling, shape and fastening, so you can judge how it will feel to wear. An adjustable strap or tie helps you find a comfortable fit without pulling the mask tight.

Our sleep masks use 22 momme silk fabric and silk floss filling. The Original has slim elasticated straps made from velvet; the 360 has a wider Velcro strap and shaped eye cushions. These practical details matter more than a claim of ultimate comfort, which will always depend on the person wearing the mask.

The padded eye cushion in the 360 silk sleep mask is EVA foam wrapped in silk. It is not described as memory foam. This cushion gives the eye area its sculpted shape, while the separate Mulberry silk floss filling contributes softness within the mask.

If you are comparing the best sleep masks, check which material provides the padding and which part sits against your skin. Different sleep masks use different materials for their outer fabric, filling and support. For our 360 silk mask, the eye cushion has a silk covering and works alongside a light-blocking filter and wraparound design.

The best silk eye mask is the one whose shape and fastening feel comfortable on you. Choose the Original silk eye mask for a lightweight, softly padded design with slim elasticated velvet ties. Choose the 360 silk sleep mask if you prefer a wider wraparound fit, an adjustable Velcro fastening and sculpted space around your eyes and lashes.

Both use 22 momme Mulberry silk and Mulberry silk floss filling. The 360 also has a silk-covered EVA foam eye cushion and a light-blocking filter. Start with the fit you prefer, then choose your colour or print from the sleep masks above.

Silk floss is a soft filling made from silk fibres. It is different from woven silk fabric: the fabric forms the smooth shell, while the silk floss provides the yielding padding within. Our Original and 360 silk sleep masks use Mulberry silk floss filling rather than polyester stuffing.

The 360 also contains an EVA foam eye cushion wrapped in silk and a separate light-blocking filter. That shaped cushion is distinct from the silk floss filling. This means the whole 360 mask should not be described as foam-free, plastic-free or entirely natural.

Momme measures the weight of silk fabric. Our silk eye masks use 22 momme Mulberry silk for a substantial yet soft fabric against the skin. A higher momme number describes a heavier fabric, rather than proving quality on its own; the fibre, weave and finishing also matter.

Mulberry silk names the silk fibre, while silk floss describes the filling. When comparing a silk eye mask, look at both the outer fabric and what is inside. A silk shell alone does not tell you whether a sleep mask has silk floss, synthetic padding or a shaped foam component.

The Original silk eye mask has soft elasticated velvet ties. Tie them once at the back to set a comfortable fit, then use the stretch in the straps to slip the mask on and off. It is a tie fastening, rather than a sliding buckle or Velcro strap.

Place the silk eye mask over your eyes and adjust the ties so the mask feels secure without being tight. Keep the knot in a position that feels comfortable when your head rests on your pillow. If you prefer to adjust a wide fastening around your head each time, consider the 360 silk sleep mask.

The oversized shape covers the eye area, while the deep cutout makes room for the nose bridge. Position the silk eye mask so the cutout sits around your nose, then adjust its sides gently. Check the fit before settling into your usual sleeping position. The mask should feel secure without pressure on your eyelids. This front coverage and deep nose-bridge cutout are what distinguish the Original blackout design from the 360's wider wraparound shape.

The 360 silk sleep mask wraps around the head and closes with an adjustable Velcro fastening. Its wider shape provides coverage beyond the front of the eye area, while sculpted, silk-covered EVA eye cushions create space around the eyelids and lashes.

Adjust the Velcro strap until the silk sleep mask has a snug fit without pressing tightly. Check that the shaped eye pockets sit comfortably around your eyes. Fit is personal, so take a moment to adjust the fastening and position rather than relying on extra strap tension to block light.

Both the Original and 360 silk sleep masks offer blackout for complete darkness. The Original silk eye mask uses an oversized shape and a deep cutout for the nose bridge, designed to sit closely around the face for blocking light. The 360 silk sleep mask has a wraparound design, sculpted eye cushions and a separate light-blocking filter.

Choose the shape and fastening you prefer, then adjust the mask so it sits comfortably without feeling tight. If light enters at an edge, gently reposition the silk mask and adjust the ties or Velcro fastening. The Original offers a light, softly padded feel; the 360 wraps around the head with space around your eyelids and lashes.

If you wear lash extensions, the 360 silk sleep mask is the design to consider first. Its sculpted eye pockets create room around the eyes and lashes, unlike the Original silk eye mask, which rests softly over the eye area.

Check the fit while blinking before settling down. Lash lengths and eye shapes vary, so space around your lashes cannot be guaranteed for every wearer. Follow your lash technician's advice and avoid any mask that touches or presses on your extensions. The aim is a comfortable fit, with the eye cushion sitting around the eyes rather than against the lashes.

Side sleepers may prefer the Original silk eye mask's lighter shape and slim elasticated straps, or the 360 silk sleep mask's wider wraparound feel. There is no single best sleep mask for every sleeping position. The pillow you use and where the fastening rests can change how a mask feels when you turn.

Check the fit in your usual sleeping position. Make sure the ties or Velcro fastening sit comfortably and that the eye mask does not feel tight against your skin. Choose by the feel you enjoy rather than assuming that more padding will always be more comfortable.

Mulberry silk has a smooth surface that feels soft against the delicate eye area. That smoothness reduces rubbing compared with rougher fabrics, and silk is breathable, helping the mask feel comfortable against the skin. Our silk eye masks pair that fabric with a soft silk floss filling.

If you have delicate skin, comfort also depends on the fastening, cleanliness and fit. Keep your silk mask clean, let skincare settle before wearing it and avoid a tight strap. A silk sleep mask is a comfort accessory, not a treatment for skin conditions, eye strain or dry eyes.

Silk is a natural fibre; satin describes a weave. A satin sleep mask can be made from silk or from synthetic fibres such as polyester. A glossy appearance alone does not tell you the material or the filling.

Our silk eye masks use pure Mulberry silk fabric and Mulberry silk floss filling. The 360 includes its additional silk-covered EVA cushion and light-blocking filter. If you are comparing different materials, check the fabric composition, the filling and any shaped components separately. Read our guide to silk and satin.

Follow the care label for your silk sleep mask. Hand wash gently in cool water below 30°C, using a pH-neutral detergent designed for silk. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Avoid rubbing, twisting or wringing the silk mask, which can distort its shape.

Press gently between clean towels, reshape and air-dry in the shade. Do not tumble dry or place the mask on a radiator. Treat the 360's shaped eye cushion carefully and let the entire mask dry before wearing or storing it. Read the silk care guide for more advice.

Wash your silk eye mask regularly according to its care label, and sooner if it has skincare, perspiration or make-up on it. How often depends on how frequently you wear it and your bedtime routine. A spare silk sleep mask can be useful while the first air-dries.

Let the mask dry completely before putting it away. Keep Velcro fastened on the 360 when it is not being adjusted, so the fastening is less likely to catch on silk fabric or hair. Gentle care helps preserve both the smooth silk surface and the shape of your sleep mask.

Yes. Sleep masks can help reduce unwanted light when you rest away from home, on a flight or during the day. The Original silk eye mask is a lightweight option with slim ties; the 360 silk sleep mask offers a wider wraparound shape if you prefer more coverage.

Choose a fit that remains comfortable against a seat or pillow. Keep your silk mask clean and dry between uses, and check the individual product or gift set to see which accessories are included. Blocking light may make it easier to settle, but a silk sleep mask cannot guarantee deeper sleep or a particular change in sleep quality.

A silk eye mask can be a simple signal that it is time to switch off: put away your screen, settle into a comfortable position and adjust the mask gently. The soft fabric and reduced light can help create a more restful setting at bedtime.

Choose the Original silk sleep mask for a light, softly padded feel or the 360 for wraparound coverage and space around the eyes. Your comfort matters more than a tight fit. Sleep masks are one part of your surroundings and routine; they do not replace advice for persistent sleep difficulties.
